Message from the Chancellor Commander:

Benjamin N. Cardozo Lodge #163/157 Knights of Pythias has been part of the Fair Lawn scene for over 60 years.  This non-sectarian fraternal order was established on three major principles contained in our emblem as "F" (Friendship), "C" (Charity), & "B" (Benevolence).

Our mission is to provide men of character the opportunity to help those in need.  The charitable efforts we support are varied. Monies are raised to support local and national charitable organizations such as Cystic Fibrosis, Deborah Heart & Lung Hospital, Cancer Care, Volunteer Ambulance, and Fire Departments in the hometowns of our members.  We also volunteer our time to support local programs such as Club Fun for special needs kids, and many holiday parties in our area.  We also sponsor a Circus for special needs adults and kids each year, collect winter coats for families in shelters & homeless, and run a Charity Walkathon.

The organization offers our members some medical benefits with the Cardozo Benevolent Association and an opportunity to make new friends, but it is our Charitable and Benevolent work that keeps us vibrant and is the drawing force to add new members interested in the opportunity to participate in our good work.

If you are interested in joining our organization, please contact our membership chairman, IG Morris Platsky at 908-403-0119 or email us at amp507629@gmail.com
